Hyatt
Offers Custom Wake-Up Calls
Updated October 30, 2006
CHICAGO -- Hyatt Hotels & Resorts is introducing
the New Hyatt Wake-Up Call a customized service allowing
friends and family to record personalized wake-up call greetings
for traveling loved ones. Available exclusively to Hyatt's Gold
Passport members in North America and the Caribbean, the service
is designed to help frequent business travelers maintain connection
with others while on the road and personalize their stay with
the sound of a familiar voice in the morning.
To celebrate the launch, supermodel Christie Brinkley, well
known for balancing a hectic travel schedule and life as a mom,
recorded two limited-edition wake-up greetings available for
download at www.hyattwakeup.com.
The cheerful messages offer inspiration advice for the day and
remind listeners not the hit the snooze button, as breakfast
and perhaps the gym awaits them. Each time a Hyatt
Gold Passport member registers for Brinkley's call, Hyatt will
donate $1.00 to the Make-A-Wish Foundation, or contribute a maximum
donation of $10,000.
"I lead a very active life as a busy mother of three,
business woman and environmentalist, which often means exciting
trips and adventures," says Christie Brinkley. "Being
part of Hyatt's Wake Up Call launch is rewarding because it will
help travelers like me stay connected with family while on the
road. Now your kids can still wake you up too early, even when
you're away! It's a fun way to stay connected and raise money
for the Make-a-Wish Foundation, a cause that is very close to
my heart."
Beginning October 11, 2006, Hyatt Gold Passport members will
be able to visit www.hyattwakeup.com or 1-866-387-1769 to schedule
a call. Hyatt's Diamond and Platinum Gold Passport members will
be able to register for an annual subscription for unlimited
access to schedule personalized wake-up calls. All wake-up calls
will be sent directly to members' cell phones.
"The New Hyatt Wake-Up Call is the latest in a series
of new products and services that demonstrate Hyatt's commitment
to business travelers," explains Matt Adams, Senior Vice
President of Operations for Hyatt Hotels Corporation. "In
addition to amenities like 24-hr StayFit@Hyatt gyms, efficient
check-in kiosks and WiFi, something like a personalized message
from a spouse or child can really jumpstart your day."
